Accessing Simple Config Bean from Controller

[Clifford Moon]

Greetings,

I have the following bean defined within my coldspring.xml file.

<bean id="AppConfig" class="ModelGlue.Bean.CommonBeans.SimpleConfig">
<property name="Config">
<map>
<entry key="AppTitle"><value>Event Management</value></
entry>
<entry key="dsn"><value>webapps</value></entry>
<entry key="mssql_dsn"><value>internetservices</value></entry>

</map>
</property>
</bean>


Is there any way to access the entries of this bean from within the
controller?

Thanks,

Cliff

Something like getModelGlue().getBean("AppConfig") should give it to you. Or, if you're on MG3, add a `beans="AppConfig"` attribute to your controller definition, and just reference it as `beans.AppConfig`.

Hi Cliff,

In your controller add the beans annotation to the component

component extends="ModelGlue.." beans="AppConfig" 

ModelGlue will then inject your AppConfig into the controllers beans scope

function doSomething(event) {

   var someSetting = beans.AppConfig.someSetting;

}

Greetings,

Thanks for the quick replies Mark and Chris,

I'm on MG3, and added the following to the controller component:

<cfcomponent displayname="registrantController" output="false" hint="I
am the controller for Registrant."
extends="ModelGlue.gesture.controller.Controller" beans="AppConfig">

I then tried the following,

<cfset theSystem = beans.AppConfig.theSystem />
<cfset theProtocol = beans.AppConfig.theProtocol />

and got this error:

Element APPCONFIG.THESYSTEM is undefined in BEANS.

What did I miss here.

Thanks for any help,

Cliff

Hi,

Answered my own question. Was referencing something that wasnt
defined in the bean .. DOH!..

Thanks for all the help,

Cliff

Indeed... just to clarify for anyone reading this in the archives later on, by default it's at

beans.AppConfig.getConfigSetting("theSetting")

where beans.AppConfig is a reference to the bean and getConfigSetting() is (obviously) a method on the bean. If you were to dump the bean you'd see 3 methods and no properties whereas what you were trying to access were actually properties and not method calls.

Sorry to state the obvious. :) These archives show up in Google searches and I figured we should close the loop on this question in case anyone else ran into it later on.

Still alive and kicking... :)
